Therapeutic approaches and online care

Candace Tompkins integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online practice to address a range of challenges. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the client’s perspective guides the work and personal goals inform the pace and focus. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and related concerns. DBT offers practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing impulsive behaviors, which can be helpful for issues like anger, trauma responses, or difficulty regulating emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Candace works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions with Candace are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from a licensed professional without needing to travel, helping clients fit therapy into busy or changing lives.
